CAN IT EFFECT WARFARIN LEVELS?
2148
Sandy, I have been on Warfarin since 2010 and discovered the benefits of D-mannose for UTIs about a year later. (I had been getting a UTI at least once a year prior to using D-mannose...even while trying other preventive aides.) My monthly Pro-time tests are consistently good and at the proper levels as overseen by my doctor. So for me, D-mannose has kept any UTIs away & NOT affected my blood work or Warfarin dosage. Please note that I do not take the D-mannose daily (unless I feel a UTI is trying to take hold) but I do try to take it several times a week. So for me the large bottle lasts far longer than 40 days.

I recommend asking your pharmacist instead of going by random people's opinions on the Internet. But my google search came up with no known interactions.

It us unlikely that d-mannose would effect warfarin levels as it has nothing to do with the body's blood clotting mechanusm. In addition, I find that most physicians do not know enough about complementary medicine alternatives. Therefore, a typical allopathic MD will not be able to answer your question and be more inclined to prescribe an antibiotic which leads to resistance and more disease in the long run.

Frances:Do not know for sure but using 2 tabs daily brought my wife's hemaglobin from 9 to 14 which is almost normal for a senior citizen. She was getting a Procrit injection because her hemoglobin was 7, Then Medicare would not approved Procrit unless she was hospitalized and we started on this product rather than another stay in the Hospital. We still use it. Best of luckJohn J.

It does for me. You can ask your MD if you think you need an increased dosage. But for me, acts like Zyrtec did

Yes - yes- yes. I take coumadin, but using this in small amounts (less than a tablespoon a day) has no effect on my INR readings. And taking 1/2 tspn of this with 1 TPSN honey seems to help keep down joint swelling/inflamation).And the flavor is awesome!

This is not Vitamin K2. This is not a vitamin - it is a supplement although there may be similar end use properties. Please check with your doctor if you have clotting problems.

Hello; how are you? yes it may. Apply a small amount to the affected area. Titrate amount applied upwards until desired results are achieved. Please let us know if anymore questions. Have a splendid weekend!

It doesnt effect kidneys the way lithium carbonate does. No blood tests are required and ive never gained weight on lithium orotate but gained alot on lithium carbonate. Not sure if it effects others differently...im just a patient. But id prefer natural to pharmicutical anytime i can. To many side effects. My naturalpath dr had me try this 2i years ago. I went to pharmacutical for a year...gained alot of weight and it effected my thyroid as well.

Yes, but it is not instant. It will take a day or two to notice a difference.

I am not sure. I took this for two weeks and it had no effect on me what so ever. I just recently returned it for a refund.

500 mg time release. I believe this can thin your blood so check with physician befpre using unless it was recommended by your physician in a particular dose. My physician recommended the appropriate dose for me, which is different (lower) than what is on the product label.

I am not aware about any issues concerning Chromium levels, only the fact that it has a pleasant taste and works miracles with my bronchial and asthma issues. After drinking, I have had no ill affects whatsoever. Maybe the Manufacturer can help? It is my non-professional opinion that it must not, because I have had no issues with flushing skin, nor any other symptoms of dis-ease. I hope this helps!

Hi John -- Bob is currently using Walgreen's One Daily Multivitamin (365 tablet bottle) -- he is SO much happier with that one!!!! No Vit. K -- much smaller, round, smooth, red tablet - he has had no problems with his INR numbers fluctuating -- he self tests & today his INR was a 3.0 -- we do have to change his coumadin intake from time to time --- he has to take a daily 7.5 on that one --- (That Multivitamin has been very easy to swallow & comes in a red/white bottle. ) Hope that helps . . .

Yes, just don't give it with medication or withing an hour of giving any medication or supplement. It's powerful and will negate effects of medicines and supplements.

I don't know but my husband was just in urgent care because of blood in his urine, and one of the contributing factors could be a kidney stone. We are awaiting final results of his ultrasound and urine culture, and will speak with his physician. He has been taking two capsules/day for wrist pain, and it did help with the pain, but we are now concerned that it could be the cause of this blood in the urine.
